Gear up for a double XP weekend in Battlefield 3

EA has just announced that all Battlefield 3 players will have the opporunity to rank up that much faster in a BF3 double XP weekend starting this Saturday.

From Saturday, 16 June at 5.01 pm AEST through until Monday, 18 June at 4.59 pm AEST, “all soldiers in the Battlefield 3 brigade will earn Double XP in matches across all maps and modes on ranked servers including the newly released Close Quarters digital expansion pack,” said EA Australia.

In case that last quote sped by and all you caught was “double XP,” it also means that Xbox 360 and PC Battlefield 3 “Premium” members will gain early access to the new “Close Quarters” DLC.
